Black & Red e92 Build Thread [PIC HEAVY]

kayfaz · 01-25-2014, 07:48 PM

So thought it's about time to post a build thread.

Bought the car in June last year, here are the details:
2008 (58) 320d M Sport Coupe
Sapphire Black
Fold in mirrors, heated seats, sports seat, split armrests, Professional HU, Xenons, Shadowline trim, light rear window tint
6-speed Manual

Started off with getting rid of the chrome grilles

Then some LED angel eye bulbs

Added some bass
JL 250 version amp and JL Subwoofer

Then tried on my brothers wheels

And also fitted a performance spoiler from bc.moto and debadged completely

But didn't really like my brothers wheels for some reason and then AJ wanted to get rid of his wheels and gave me a whole new idea!

Gave the car a quick shower after fitting the new wheels

Got some H&R Springs fitted and love it!

The drop on the back is Perfect, but front hmm would have been happier if it was a little lower, but oh well...

Do I reckon it will look better if I add some more red accents?

I bought it off eBay second hand...

Not a fan, but so long as you like it, that's all that counts!

sd_luis · 01-26-2014, 08:47 AM

now just get some spacers !

themanthatcan · 01-26-2014, 09:18 AM

As long as you like the wheels that's all that matters, but I personally think they look like "My First Alloys Wheels"..like something off a child's toy.

Jase 320d · 01-26-2014, 09:21 AM

If you got those MV4's done in anthracite it would look 100x better

kayfaz · 01-26-2014, 09:23 AM

tbh am not 100% on the wheels yet either...not sure if I can pull it off somehow or get it refurbed

sd_luis · 01-26-2014, 09:44 AM

I think what makes the rims not look so good are the old blue and white roundels it just kills it doesn't match

E92NeilH · 01-26-2014, 10:30 AM

Nice car mate. Mmmm! the wheels it personal taste if you like them that's all that matters but I think they would look better in anthracite with the black and grey roundels and spacers.

lolololol · 01-26-2014, 10:59 AM

Nice effort but you should of kept your brothers wheels. Doesn't work for me mate , but is different for sure!

Alex.J · 01-26-2014, 11:14 AM

Looks good apart from the wheels!

Really not a fan of bright coloured wheels!
